On Windows 7 dwm.exe adjusted itself according to the application. On Windows 8 and 8.1 it does not. As a result you will often get poor performance when playing old games and even some new ones due to the incompatibility of the video mode or something or other. The bottom line is that it made Win …

My apologies, will do :) On topic: I don't think I'm going to bother with the preview of 10 (and why not 9 lol ), I don't even have a spare rig to try it on and I'm definitely not gonna sacrifice one of my faster rigs for it :) Lets see if they bring the startbutton back in the release, then I'll …

you don't have the stability of win2000 and you're also missing the flexibility of win98se in terms of dos gaming. there are driver incompatibilites regarding devices for win95/98/98se and it was quite buggy (beta phase was very short). it was a beauty admittedly, like vista was :-) edit: might be …

Windows ME isn't dead though :) yeah might be but it should be dead :-) Why say that? Personally Windows ME worked better for me then 98SE and 98FE was a BSoD-disaster when I had it. you don't have the stability of win2000 and you're also missing the flexibility of win98se in terms of dos gaming. …

So, to prepare myself for the Soyo motherboard, I've decided to replace the capacitors on my GA-7VM400M (Rev 1) motherboard. I drew myself a little map of the motherboard with the capacitor locations as well as their pedigrees (capacitance, voltage and diameter). This kept me busy for about 2 hours …

What's wrong with that? I never had any problems with Vista either. Pretty damn stable as well, but it was kinda of resource heavy if you didn't have lots of ram and a dual core or at least a fast single core. In fact, I liked the color scheme much better than 7 or 8. vista is quite a beauty BUT it …

Hey, gl1zda, is that windows 7 you're running? Yes, it was ;) It took some time to upgrade (it's a ThinkPad X120e with AMD E-350 and 4 GB - a fast netbook, but still a netbook), but it seems WTP works quite well. I had to update the graphics driver (just clicking update in VGA properties worked) …
